Little Mermaid Denver presale

....they are selling tickets before announcing the cast? God, what has Disney done?

---

Well they did say Casting Announced Shortly..so maybe FINALLY they will announce the cast

It's because the show is a name in itself. No one really goes because they care about whether or not [insert famous name in here] is in it. Of course if someone famous was in it, it'd be an even bigger draw, but Disney is already so popular that they don't really need a star vehicle.

Oh wow! That is cheap. I'll probably be in Denver in June and I can't wait too see this.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, singtopher, but it doesn't open until July 26.
And I bought tix, not because it's OMG DISNEY!!!! but because this is the first time (to my knowledge) that a show has done its out-of-town tryout in Denver. And it will be my first opportunity to see an original cast (or most of the original cast; I'm sure there will be casting changes between July and November).

I have yet to see anything on TV promoting the show here in Denver. If they are promoting it on TV, they don't seem to be promoting it much. A lot of people still don't know that it is opening here. It definetly does not have the advanced hype that "Lion King" had when it started its national tour here. More people, that I speak to, seem to know about "Wicked" returning then the World Premiere of "Mermaid". I have a block of seats for the 21st of August. I didn't get my dates to select from until a week ago, and Disney wanted a deposit just days after the dates for groups were sent out. For the last 2 shows I did groups for (Lion King's return and Wicked) they gave us a few months just to get the full amount in. No deposit was required. I will know how sales went today when I talk to friends at the Center tomorrow.
